Re: How can I "wow" developers with CODE in WDSc 5.0?

The wowser for me is Help. F4 any line, help on any field and get the
relevant manual pages.
 
The second wowser would be the error codes on a compile.

Subject: How can I "wow" developers with CODE in WDSc 5.0?
 
Hi, we're considering rolling out CODE to all other developers'
workstations in our shop (about 4 to 6) and would like to hear other
people's opinions on which features or specific functions that I should
demonstrate to instantly "wow" them? I've been using WDT/400 5.1 for
several months and just recently installed WDSc 5.0 with the 5.0.1 fixpack.
Another developer was given a copy of the old WDT/400 version and after
installing it only used it for about a week. Apparently it was not working
100% for him for some reason and doesn't have much interest in 5.0. I've
not been completely converted to CODE yet myself because of its quirks and
occasional errors. I admit 5.0.1 is much more stable and has fixed some of
these quirks.
 
We're running V5R1 and everyone pretty much uses SEU and SDA to develop
now. We all have workstations with at least Windows 2000, 1 GHZ processors
and 256MB-512MB RAM each. We'll probably only use CODE and not get much
into the Websphere Development.
 
I appreciate any comments or suggestions how to "wow" people. Obvious
choices in mind are the whole Designer bit and being able to graphically
layout printer files and display files, online help, compiling and
debugging. Also, are there any other features that we should be using that
I don't know about?
 
Thanks!
